About

Nieuw concept! Geen wetenschappelijke resultaten meer maar een blik in het leven van een thuiswerkende wetenschapper tijdens de coronacrisis. Tekeningen met korte tekst. In het Nederlands, want dat is toch het makkelijkst grappen maken.

New concept! No more scientific results, but a peek in the life of an academic working from home during the corona pandemic. In my mother tongue, because that is how I can be funniest and laziest.

Fresh science with a grain of salt

On this blog you’ll find posts on human motor learning and motivation. All blogs will be based on scientific publications and I will sometimes write about my own research. I will try to show you what results from basic science could mean in everyday life. With strange metaphors and colorful illustrations I hope to trigger your imagination.

About me

Since 2004 I work as a researcher in the fields of Psychology and Human Movement Sciences. My research interest has wandered from the conscious experience of free will to the details of 3D perception to computational motor learning. Now, my work has settled in a lasting focus on human learning and motivation.
